what about bfg kdw’s?? they about 160-180 a tire depending on what site u go to.

didnt you find any on those sites i gave you? could try [discounttire.com](http://discounttire.com) as well. there is some regular 555 nittos on there for a good price. my friend just bought the drag radials for like 153 each and they shipped quick

falken 512’s are cheap, but don’t last for shit. 5-6k on the front of my 115hp vw is all they do if that.

Thats what I hear…those and BFG hook very well but dont wear so good. The Nitto’s wear decent but take a little more heat to hook.
